Finite dimensional matrices having more columns than rows have no left inverses while those having more rows than columns have no right inverses. We give generalizations of these simple facts to bi--infinite matrices and use those to obtain…

We report on the demonstration of an effective, nonlinearity-induced non-reciprocal behavior in a single non-magnetic multi-mode Taiji resonator. Non-reciprocity is achieved by a combination of an intensity-dependent refractive index and of…
